A couple of weeks ago I attended the Secret Santa London Meet Up organised by the lovely Clare and Emma. The plan behind it was we were all given a ‘Secret Santa’, another blogger that we were buying the gift for, and would all meet up in London to exchange gifts and eat mince pies and have a chat. I went along with Bex and of course no meet up would go ahead without some sort of drama with us, and this time we got completely lost, despite having gone to Tiger Tiger in Piccadilly Circus three times together, oops. And as usual I completely forgot to take any photos of the event as I was so busy chatting to other bloggers so I have nothing to put up in my post, Oops.
At the event we were given some lovely goody bags organised by Emma. They came with some great goodies from Simply Be, Bomb Cosmetics and Apivita, and I think my favourite thing must be the “I love blogging” sign by Mums Crafts. There was also some chocolates and candy canes but of course I ate that before I remembered to take photos..
We were also given our Secret Santa gifts and I was really impressed with mine. I got a bottle of Lush Snow Fairy (my favourite shower gel ever!), a Revlon Lip Butter in the shade Berry Smoothie, a face mask, and a Baylis & Harding Beauticology gift set including the most amazing fluffy socks, Gingerbread Foot Soak Crystals and Vanilla Frosting Foot Lotion. I was sat joking with Bex and Clare that who ever got me knew me really well as I loved my Secret Santa and then Clare admitted it was her! After the event we all split up different ways and I wondered off with Bex, Clare and her friend Natalie to wonder around the shops, and I even let Clare influence me to pick up a MAC lipstick.
I had such a great time at the Secret Santa London Meet Up, and the thought behind it from Clare and Emma was brilliant. And thank you to my Secret Santa *cough* Clare *cough*.
I don’t know how my poor hair puts up with me. It’s been put through hell with bleaching, dying, and constant heat application. So I decided it was time to treat my hair to some products that would help it out, especially if I ever want it to grow. One product that my friend Simone raves about is the Kérastase…
Recently Kat from Tales Of A Pale Face organised an autumn blog swap and I was quick to put my name down for it. I was then paired up with the lovely Tasha from Wand Included. After a few emails we agreed on a budget to spend on each other, and had told each other our…
Something I love about blogging is discovering brands I’ve never come across before. I love reading other bloggers posts about products they’ve tried, and trying out new products myself too. Blogging has not only opened my eyes to a whole load of other companies and brands that I’d never heard of or come across in…
Over time my nail varnish collection has grown and grown, resulting my nail polishes outgrowing their old home. While I’ve been home over the summer its been okay because I store them all in my dolls house which you can see here. But as I’m going back to uni in a few weeks time, I’m in…
I have troubles with sleep, I always have, and I probably always will. I think I’m just one of those people who can’t ‘switch off’ at night. I’ve tried everything to try and help me get a good night’s sleep, but there’s one thing that I always find helps me (without resorting to sleeping pills),…
Recently I’ve been on bit of a health kick trying to get back into my gym routine, and carrying on with my weight-loss mission. I’m carrying on with my Weight Watchers plan and trying to eat a lot healthier and exercise more, but this then led me to think about looking after myself from the inside too….
